You asked if Mom is participating in NaNo! Yes, she sure is. And she's participating in another novel-writing challenge, too -- at the same time as NaNo! *whew*, makes me want to take a nap just thinking about it...

I lovelovelove boxes too! I've been busy teaching Casey the joys of boxes, and she is getting the hang of it. We think it's a healthy, excellent and most helpful habit to have, we are glad that the kidbean is getting into it! ;)

Anyways, thanks to your mommy, she feels better, altho she hopes she didn't make your mommy too sad reminding her of her beforekitty. Mommy thinks black kitties are beautiful, just as us white kitties are beautiful.
